[rancid juniper]

wheres the misi version

[dusk knot]

Oh

Stupid how the base frame rate determines latency

[worn wave]

Yeah my base is like 60 cause i have RT on

[dusk knot]

60...rip

I have the money, NgreedAi. Why did you have to do this.

[surreal comet]

You will enjoy 12gb on a 70 series card

[worn wave]

yeah that's just not a gigabyte cooler design. Maybe the refrence design is like open for parters to copy?

[rancid juniper]

SOMEONE BOUGHT THIS FOR $800???

[dusk knot]

Alright thanks, Stevie

[rancid juniper]

cools better than ac

[surreal comet]

Maybe

[worn wave]

ok I found the product page

https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-R79XT-20GC-B#kf

[surreal comet]

Idk I love the reference design

Would love a 7900xtx reference model

[dusk knot]

I was thinking of getting a 4080 for resale value because The more I wait on selling my 3080ti the less money I'm going to get back in return in the future

[worn wave]

If you follow the "buy" link from gigabyte it links to a non-reference card

https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-gv-r79xtgaming-oc-20gd-amd-radeon-rx-7900-xt-20gb-gddr6/p/N82E16814932585?Item=N82E16814932585&SoldByNewegg=1

[surreal comet]

Weird

I will check every other hour but I don't that gets you no where

[worn wave]

I'd guess it's either limited regions or AMD let them make a select amount non reference coolers? idk

[surreal comet]

Zero clue

Shows box
Description says no box

Such many cases

[fresh timber]

I want a 7900xt

Tbh

Gaming

[surreal comet]

I want that but with one more x

[fresh timber]

I’d rather 4080 at that point ngl

[surreal comet]

I think a 4080 way more expensive than a 7900xtx

On average anyways

[paper verge]

wasnt the 4070 ti meant to be on par with the 7900xtx?

price wise

[wise wigeon]

youre probably thinking ti super

[fresh timber]

wtf happened

Rip 4080 prices

[surreal comet]

Xtx looks like it's slightly better in pure raster than a 4080?

I thinks?

[wise wigeon]

it is in some situations

not as much in others

most direct competitor though

[paper verge]

oh yeah

super

[fresh timber]

Margin of error

[wise wigeon]

and if both were at msrp

[surreal comet]

If a 4080 was close in price I'd consider a 4080

[wise wigeon]

i would pick the 4080 S

[surreal comet]

Sadly it is not

All the 7900xtx sellers in my area have terrible one star reviews

Mfw

[wise wigeon]

7900xtx is like sold out rn too

[fresh timber]

Same

[wise wigeon]

if i can snag one i'll skip the 50 series rat race

[fresh timber]

Better raytracing, ai stuff, nvenc

AMD, Cheaper

[wise wigeon]

and more vram

[surreal comet]

I was never an RT guy so I'd rather just go with the amd route

[wise wigeon]

but I dont see a situation ill run out of vram that soon

[surreal comet]

Plus AMD generally seems better if you wanna try Linux n whatnot

[fresh timber]

Real

[fresh timber]

Nvidis Linux is better

[wise wigeon]

its not

[paper verge]

who even games on linux

its such a pain

[fresh timber]

Better than before

[paper verge]

i really tried on opensuse atleast and it was the worst experience

[fresh timber]

Unless 50 series the. Good luck

[surreal comet]

It's an option

[wise wigeon]

literally every person I know who uses linux (and I know because they tell me) hates the driver situation for nvidia on linux

[fresh timber]

Yeah it’s bad but getting a lot better

[surreal comet]

As it stands rn it's worse than amd

[fresh timber]

Unfortunately

[surreal comet]

Nvidia please give me more vram when card expensive thanks

[fresh timber]

5090

[surreal comet]

Also make cards that are not 1500 dollar and are not even the top end

[surreal comet]

Brb spending 5k to have good vram

[fresh timber]

L

[surreal comet]

Wait for the 5060 to have 8gb of vram

The bestest value

[fresh timber]

It does lol

Just buy b580

[surreal comet]

Time to stalk fb

[rancid juniper]

still no B770

😭

[surreal comet]

Rip

I can't see myself getting an Intel card but I still want them to do well

I should downgrade to a 3080ti

Cause they look cool

🙏

[worn wave]

Might actually be an upgrade lol

Or a sidegrade

[surreal comet]

Side grade prolly

Less vram lot more power consumption

[worn wave]

It's 12gb

Same as 4070

[surreal comet]

Ah

[sweet phoenix]

3080 ti is a tiny bit behind the 4070s

[surreal comet]

But yeah 600 bucks and j spend alot more on power bill

My 4070 only pulls some 140-150 watts on my undervolt

[rancid juniper]

Where does my 7800xt land again?

[surreal comet]

Joe knows

4090 for two grand splendid

[dense locust]

Somewhere between good and good enough

[rancid juniper]

Real

[dense locust]

Got my 5080 yesterday

[surreal comet]

Erm can it trace rays at 8k

Nerd emoji

[dense locust]

1070 -> 5080

Minor upgrade

[rancid juniper]

[surreal comet]

Amazing

[dense locust]

Ironically I got the 5080 version of this card

[surreal comet]

I'll wait for muh AMD card

I know I don't find a 4080s or anything like that at a similar price

[dense locust]

Hopefully stock is better

[surreal comet]

Give it a

Couple months

Hopefully

Ain't RDNA 4 the last gen before they switch to UDNA or something?

[surreal comet]

[rancid juniper]

[surreal comet]

My ""local"" microcenter has a 7900xtx at 880

I say local because it's like an hour away

[sweet phoenix]

i got a whole $145 back

[surreal comet]

[nocturne flicker]

I'm getting [Insert Number Here] back

[surreal comet]

I'm getting some 1000 back

Winning

[nocturne flicker]

Maybe 200 this year

[rancid juniper]

[sweet phoenix]

i only made 17k last year so it makes sense

[ancient swift]

I'm getting 1983$ back total

[surreal comet]

Pickup only so sad

[sweet phoenix]

$1064 of that paid into social security that I'll never see, but yknow

[surreal comet]

Taxes

[ancient swift]

I dunno why I always seem to get back so much compared to other people. 👀 I overpay by a lot somehow

[elfin mural]

woah

[elfin mural]

i have the opposite issue

[surreal comet]

Hellhounds one for 850

[ancient swift]

I'm fine overpaying, cause I like getting it as a nice check back all at once cause then I can do something pretty big.

[elfin mural]

gpu is 4050

cpu is 6800hs

[nocturne flicker]

You probably did a wrong input or somebody at your job did for calculating the withholding

[surreal comet]

Cambridge is like hour away

So sad

[elfin mural]

im vram limited

[frigid stag]

My pc when I get the 5080

[surreal comet]

Hour long drive there then another hour back

[ancient swift]

Yeah, maybe my W4 has something wrong so I overpay

[rancid juniper]

After investing in Nintendo stock I only earned $9

Hm

[surreal comet]

Maybe the drive is worth it....

[rancid juniper]

[ancient swift]

I know with lots of OT and decent bonuses overpaying is pretty easy cause they'll overtax you.

But thats still a big gap

[surreal comet]

Wonder if I can pay online then pick up in store

[nocturne flicker]

Since investing my money into bogle style portfolio I have made $300. Because somebody is doing everything in their power to cause as much chaos and economic fear as possible

My foreign market fund has gone up in value nearly 3 and a half times as much as the US market fund

Which isn't a lot because it has been about half a month but still

[rancid juniper]

Carb

[nocturne flicker]

Actually it is 5.5 times

The foreign market has gone up 3.06% and the US market is at .55%

[surreal comet]

Dropped my phone in snow

Uh oh

[nocturne flicker]

[surreal comet]

Luhmao

[misty sparrow]

could it have been the cable he used?

[surreal comet]

Okay microcenter has a few models
Dunno if I should take the day to go up there and look at the stock they have

Driving into Boston stinks

Will sleep on it

[misty sparrow]

microcenter's far away from you too huh?

[surreal comet]

Yeah, it's in Cambridge

About an hour drive from where I live

[dusk knot]

4090 for 1250? 🤔

[misty sparrow]

i think or me it's two to three hours away

[surreal comet]

Geez

[misty sparrow]

everything really is bigger in texas

they have everything

[surreal comet]

The one near me has a 5080 in stock

[surreal comet]

Everything is close in MA but the city sucks

[misty sparrow]

what's the problem with it, too crowded and cramped or?

i've never driven in any city

[surreal comet]

Yeah, Boston is cramped as hell

That and people there don't like to look where they drive

[misty sparrow]

if american cities were built like european cities where you can just walk everywhere it'd probably be better

[surreal comet]

Probably

Dunno if I wanna take the entire day to go drive up there

Just to find out the website was wrong and they have none in stock

[misty sparrow]

what was it you were looking for again?

[surreal comet]

7900xtx

Few models in stock (allegedly)

[misty sparrow]

well i mean

why would they list it as "in-store pickup only" and not list out of stock

[surreal comet]

Nvm website wrong they're not in stock

Had to manually select my store on the actual listing

Instead of just using the store I have plugged into the site already

Tad annoying

[misty sparrow]

hm

a lot of websites are like that, they don't grab your location and set your store automatically

[surreal comet]

Thank God they have rx 550s in stock

🙏

[surreal comet]

Weird thing is it already said my store on the top of the page

Idk it's whatever

Back to stalking the web I go

[frigid stag]

[surreal comet]

And the Ubisoft launcher

I'm minmaxxing

[frigid stag]

[surreal comet]

Can't use two monitors good enough

[sage sluice]

What kind of capture card do you use for smash?

[surreal comet]

Nvidia shadow play

[sage sluice]

Dont have a nvidia gpu so didnt know it could cast monitors

Or do you mean its just a clip

😭

[surreal comet]

No I'm emulating both a switch and a PS2 at the same time

Recently got a used switch to dump my own stuff

[still sun]

Im looking for them on Ebay and some are slightly cheaper

[surreal comet]

Needed an endurance race done in the background while I messed with the switch emulator

[sage sluice]

Ah forgot switch emulation exists

So used to it being used for older games

[surreal comet]

I'm so glad sony added 3 24hour races into a PS2 game

That get boring after an hour because there's no variable time or weather

[surreal comet]

Only really trying it for smash online

Nintendo online so doodoo I get better input delay emulating the damn system and playing online that way

[sage sluice]

Lmao honestly dont blame the attempt, i hate getting connections to a switch

Quickplay is garbage anyway so arent losing too much

[surreal comet]

Insane how quick play is a downgrade from for glory

[sage sluice]

Fr, smash 4 did it better

[surreal comet]

Melee is better than both anyways

Hope brawlback comes out soon

I wanna play P+ with matchmaking and rollback netcode

[sage sluice]

Eh melee is one of the best for comp scene sure, but otherwise its inferior in a lot of ways

[sage sluice]

God if they dont use rollback on the next game im gonna flip

[surreal comet]

Good thing I'll only play smash nowadays in a comp setting

[surreal comet]

They said it was planned for ultimate but was dropped for some reason

[sage sluice]

Im actually headed to a local on the 15th lmao

[surreal comet]

Bummer Nintendo probably stuck on their 1998 servers

[sage sluice]

Rip didnt hear that

[surreal comet]

It can't handle all the spam from one snake player

[sage sluice]

Im curious how theyll manage snake and some other licensing for the next game

[surreal comet]

They won't they'll do something like "back to the basics" to cope for the fact they can't get Cloud Strife back

Or sum

[sage sluice]

Id be surprised if they got rid of final fantasy's additions

Considering they honestly shouldve been added earlier

Although i cant complain if im no longer being aired out by bair 🥹

[surreal comet]

It's square enix who knows

They're the same people who only gave cloud

2 songs in smash 4

[sage sluice]

Honestly true

And then sora doesnt even have actual disney characters

[surreal comet]

Stupid Mickey charm or something on the keyblade

[sage sluice]

Curious how enix and disney went through that

[rancid juniper]

alr

[sage sluice]

Lol yeah

Im still waiting for cranky kong, ive been wanting him in for so long now

[surreal comet]

Too many character no rollback

At the very least upgrade the servers they're terrible

I'll use Ethernet and I'll have a solid 15 frame input delay

[sage sluice]

I mean ultimate itself already has 6 frames of input delay offline

So it adds up pretty quick

4 had 5

[surreal comet]

Thanks Nintendo

🙏

[sage sluice]

Its like they want us to mash

😭

Dinky ass buffer system and 6 frames of input delay

Theres a reason the comp scene largely consists of reads

[dusk knot]

Huh

[sage sluice]

Console version of melee has 3 frames delay and no buffer

[misty sparrow]

i wonder if brawl had four frame delay

so it adds up

[pliant berry]

Use the PCIe for nvme drives

List goes on and on

[nocturne flicker]

Yeah but a board with all M.2 funnier

[craggy shoal]

Just get a PCIe to M.2 adapter. You can fit like four SSDs on those things

And then however many PCIe slots on the board

Put each of those cards on every 16x slot. All NVMe SSDs are 4x. They'd all work at max speed lol

[icy ore]

Kinda goes for everything tho

[sinful blade]

I’m square between the eagles and Steelers country

[sinful blade]

[sinful blade]

A dude in my apartment complex bought $200 worth of wings last time, and I saw 2 boxes about the size of a small Amazon package in the dumpster

Like who DOES that

Im pretty close to philly. But not close enough where I have to worry about someone setting my car on fire

[nocturne flicker]

How can I be a true American if I'm not spending $1000 on crappy food to watch 1000 ads with 5 minutes of bleh sport game in between

Desperate as heck

i'm surprised you did nearly as good as 1080p with your 4K benchmark

[proud jackal]

[misty sparrow]

4k benchmark and 1080p benchmark are probably neck and neck

[fresh timber]

Out dated gpu

Ew

[tacit quiver]

guys is taylor swifts team winning?

[tranquil pebble]

5090s are unicorns

[mortal grail]

Where 5090

[proud jackal]

[misty sparrow]

and just like unicorns they're overrated

[dusk knot]

do 1440p next. plz

highest settings ofc

wait

[proud jackal]

noi

[dusk knot]

@rancid juniper you have thsoe monster hunter demo setting screenshots? wanted to see how theo's setup can handle it

[dusk knot]

[dusk knot]

no.not that

[rancid juniper]

do you mean the graphics settings?

[craggy shoal]

Bruh get a 4K monitor

[proud jackal]

[craggy shoal]

lol

[fresh timber]

brain not working. yes

[fresh timber]

Eagles won

[lone mango]

Is that the same one from earlier today tho

The one posted earlier today was because of a cheapo connector

[velvet summit]

looks like the same image

[lone mango]

Oh yeah it is the same guy

[sinful blade]

Okay, I don’t like football, but this is hilarious

[mortal grail]

Moddiy isn't cheap

What

I've bought from them, they're not cheap

[mortal grail]

Moddiy is recommended heavily in the sff space it's not any old layman cable

[frosty sinew]

i find it funny
how the literal hour
after windows updates resume on my pc
after like 35 days of uptime
it bluescreens

wtf

[velvet summit]

my laptop also does this

[fresh timber]

https://giphy.com/gifs/KttXIe4TrVLlZ1lAb0

[frosty sinew]

LITERALLY AN OHOUR

[velvet summit]

i've been too lazy to try to figure out what causes it since it only happens randomly after it's been on for a week

or longer

[frosty sinew]

mine has been on for like 35 days

but i have to constantly pause windows updates

then the second i forget

it bsodsz

[velvet summit]

lmao

i mean

you should restart your windows pc occasionally regardless

[frosty sinew]

no

its a pain in the ass

[velvet summit]

💀

[sinful blade]

I turn mine off every night

[velvet summit]

what, why? are you on a hdd boot 💀

[sinful blade]

It saves me money on my energy bill

[frosty sinew]

my nas

[frosty sinew]

no i just hate waiting

sleep is 2 seconds

boot is 20

and thats if windows decides to not upate

[pliant berry]

updates available

[velvet summit]

i mean, i dont turn off my pc either unless it's to update it, but damn 💀

[frosty sinew]

and when you are turniong on an off pc multiple times a day

[frosty sinew]

nuh uh

[fresh timber]

Windows when sucks

[pliant berry]

the only time I really restart my nas is for updates but i hate it because for whatever reason my system does not reboot cleanly. have to cold boot

[fresh timber]

It has problems after, 30daya

Linux good. Runs the same after 30days

[frosty sinew]

theres a reason im still on w10

this guy

[frosty sinew]

yeah well running the same just means it sucks the same

im sorry i dont want command prompt to open task manager

[pliant berry]

terminal is the future

[fresh timber]

I like terminal more

I find it easier to type a few cmds than go though 50 gui menus

ALSo easier to just type the app I want to install and install it, than go on the webpage and navigate blah blah, terminal is faster

[frosty sinew]

yeah except half of the things i deal with just dont work on linux

windows support is just sooooo much better

[fresh timber]

Tough

[velvet summit]

or you could set a power on/off schedule overnight or whatever

[frosty sinew]

then all my apps close and log out

and yadada

[velvet summit]

so it'll turn off automatically (or manually) and automatically turn on right before you go to it

[pliant berry]

why would your apps logout on close?

[frosty sinew]

and ik you can open stuff on startup

but files in the program need to be opened

[frosty sinew]

not so much logout as close windows in it

eg cad software

i generally have like 15 windows open

saved

but its just a pita to open them all agaijn

i noramlly have 10-15 programs running at all times

[fresh timber]

To maximize stability you would prob want ecc memory

[pliant berry]

that doesn't sound like the best workflow

[lone mango]

Oh fr

[frosty sinew]

It's not the ram

It's windows

[lone mango]

Idk never bought any 3rd party cables before

[frosty sinew]

Deciding to update when I put the pc to sleep

[fresh timber]

O that

[frosty sinew]

It'll deadass

When I'm sleepinf

Just restart

[pliant berry]

like in the background sure ill have a dozen apps running but even for larger projects I typically only keep 2 or 3 applications open. it's just too inefficient to flip between a dozen windows

[velvet summit]

fr

just open things that you actually need for that specific task

[frosty sinew]

Clicking a Taskbar isn't that bad lol

[mortal grail]

Moddiy is like, the second brand I suggest after cablemod. They're big

The cable doesn't look cheap either. $30 (similar to cablemod), sleeved thick gauge, 18 or 16, combed

It looks pretty loaded

And yet it melted on both ends which is wild

[pliant berry]

personally I find the mouse to be the most inefficient thing. I hate it when I can't function applications with a keyboard

[frosty sinew]

I'm the opposite lol

[velvet summit]

you should learn keyboard shortcuts, it makes doing anything so much easier

i used to be pretty much also mouse-only, but now i've become keyboard mostly

[pliant berry]

my typical workflow is keeb + macropad and if I need slider controls right hand with a tablet

[mental yoke]

Hello guys

I seem to hage an issue

Have

Basically my pc boots

Loads up like the asus screen when u have an asus mobo

But it wont boot into my windows

Was booting before

[lone mango]

Yeah it kinda looked like the fe cable so I was wrong

[lone mango]

And also it did

Brutal

Thats crazy

[mortal grail]

Insane right

[lone mango]

Pushing 600w on a 600w cable

Man

[mortal grail]

Definitely one of the worse fails I've seen

[lone mango]

Pcie 8 pin forever

Or dont get a 5090

If you do then undervolt it

[mortal grail]

300W life (25% fps loss )

[velvet summit]

somebody certainly was inspired by mouthwashing

[icy ore]

Geez

[mortal grail]

Hello everyone my name is mouthwash

[velvet summit]

hello everyone my name is hello

[lone mango]

Can’t you do like an 80% power limit and lose basically nothing

[mortal grail]

Yes

[lone mango]

Should be good then

[mortal grail]

You can do like 70% on a 4090 and lose nothing too

[lone mango]

I am having a bug where my graphics driver will timeout after fullscreening a video in discord on my second monitor

Strange interaction

[mortal grail]

DDU

[lone mango]

When I had the october update it did the same thing

I did ddu before that so it was fresh

I'll see if the next update fixes it

If not will ddu again

Or maybe i used ddu before this version whatever

[surreal comet]

Wake up
I'm awake for some reason
Bad marketplace offers
Go back to bed

[lone mango]

Dude I need that pc man

I need it for fortnite

True story btw

When I upgraded and went to itx I used the old parts and put together a computer for sale

This guy that lived over one hour away wanted me to drive to his house and kept messaging me because he wanted to play fornite

[surreal comet]

Selling a PC at like 650 for a good deal imo and I only get offers at like

450-500

Like no nerd I'm not selling for that

[lone mango]

I was selling mine for 250 and still got fellas tryna go under that

Crazy bruh

Either 250 or 300 i forgot

[surreal comet]

People be vultures

I'm selling an OLED steam deck for 450 and I get offers at 250

[lone mango]

I deleted my account so idr

My account got hacked and got turned into a bot account

I deleted it but it took 30 days to delete because facebook wants you to be locked in

Luckily nothing happened in that timeframe and it does not exist anymore

[surreal comet]

Facebook likes to take it's sweet time

[lone mango]

[surreal comet]

PC I'm selling is just used parts of mine slapped together

It's just a 6700xt with a 5800x3d

"will you let it go for 450 I need it"

[lone mango]

Bro please

Drive to my house

[surreal comet]

Drive to me and give me a discount

[mortal grail]

Lmfao

That's at least worth 650

650 is a deal

[surreal comet]

I have it listed at 650atm

[mortal grail]

Yeah I'd sell that for more myself

[lone mango]

Oh I remember now

[surreal comet]

Still lowballing cause "I need it" yeah I need 650 dollar soon

[lone mango]

My listing was 300 but I took it down to 250

[lone mango]

Fr

[mortal grail]

Should ask them how often they've needed therapy

(Don't btw you can get suspended on ebay for that ☠️)

Fbmp tho go for it

Lmao

[surreal comet]

I have good deal why can't the people see I have good prices

Heartbreaking

[mortal grail]

Cos they expect you to cave

[surreal comet]

I'm not people want a discount then want me to hold the system doe them

No shoo

[mortal grail]

Lol

[surreal comet]

Sure dude you can have this steam deck oled for 250 bucks

[lone mango]

Wow thanks

[pliant berry]

honestly a lot of people on facebook don't really know the value of anything. If you list an absurd price you might even get some lowball offers that hit exactly what you were looking for

[surreal comet]

Y'all couldn't behave I'm making this 1000

[stark galleon]

I am looking for a full stack dev

@everyone

[lone mango]

i am looking for a steam deck for $250

[surreal comet]

Hold on lemme drive it to you so you can buy it at a discount

[lone mango]

Thanks

I;ll pay for gas

[surreal comet]

So awesome

[rancid juniper]

https://youtu.be/8l6PylVl2Rc?si=KIjljO3-MgxWFgID

LOL

[lone mango]

[rancid juniper]

y'know i've always wanted to try crossfire (had a w5000 so considered getting another)

[lone mango]

All of the intel cope finally paid off
https://youtu.be/fOZlgPMHqmI

[surreal comet]

Just draw the power of a small car

It'll be okay

[lone mango]

Comments in there are silly

"why not include power draw"
"because its still less than anything amd at idle"

[elfin mural]

lmao

[lone mango]

Yo this is crazy

https://youtu.be/8JDqy0jmLVY

Mad german scientist cooked up another one

https://tenor.com/view/borzoigaming-borzoi-borzoi-true-true-borzcord-gif-3111816095909094926

[surreal comet]

If he messes it up there goes like 4 grand

[mortal grail]

I love this cos then it's like,
"Just...overclock amd too?"

The gains are impressive though

But this should've been stock

At least now we can see next gen will be a minimum good improvement

[surreal comet]

No no you can OC Intel don't OC amd

Not fair comparison

[lone mango]

Does zen 5 have good oc headroom?

[nocturne flicker]

Only allowed to OC Intel and have to use JEDEC speed ram for AMD

[mortal grail]

Ryzen scales with ram OC tremendously

[nocturne flicker]

[mortal grail]

So cpu oc is...

Well not moot

But very marginal

[lone mango]

Yeah basically not worth

[lone mango]

Even when it goes do 2:1 or whatever

[mortal grail]

You'll be surprised

Call this a bit of an early take

I could be very wrong

Next zen node

We get an IMC node shrink

Big efficiency gains, and a new controller. HOPEFULLY

[lone mango]

Yeah zen 6 should be huge

[mortal grail]

Hopefully, this means ryzen gets a big jump in ram perf

Which is a huge jump in ryzen perf

[nocturne flicker]

I wonder how X3D would react to that

[lone mango]

They are looking to try and fix the inefficiencies of current zen

[mortal grail]

The stars are saying it basically, but reality remains to be seen

[mortal grail]

Tbh zen 4 and 5 still scale well with ram on x3d

[nocturne flicker]

Mmm, I see

[mortal grail]

Understandably less than vanilla

But definitely way more than 0

[nocturne flicker]

So only Zen 3 X3D didn't scale much?

[mortal grail]

Essentially yeah

It's all a latency thing

Ddr4 latency is a lot smaller, and 5800X3D also was on a fine controller for the spec

But we've had that same controller

Since then

[nocturne flicker]

Ah, I see the difference now

[mortal grail]

And ddr5 is a lot slower but compromises with double length burst and dual channel

As well as bandwidth

So yeah

[lone mango]

Apparently they want to move the ccd closer to iod

[mortal grail]

As ram gets better zen 4 and 5 scale really well

[mortal grail]

Yes they did this with zen5

[lone mango]

And try to bridge them

[mortal grail]

They wanna get it as close as possible

The closer the better

[lone mango]

Its called a silicon bridge

[mortal grail]

Ye

It's the infinity fabric in the literal sense

I call this integral to the imc but not everyone agrees

[lone mango]

Its like that new mobile chip thats out except the connection is even better

[mortal grail]

Yes

Well you can see it in ultra 200v laptops

[lone mango]

The mobile chip has them touching but still uses the pcb i think

[mortal grail]

The igpu is extremely good

[lone mango]

Yeah fr

[mortal grail]

It can access on die ram

[lone mango]

Strix point right

[mortal grail]

Nah nah intel 200v

[lone mango]

Or strix halo

Oh

[mortal grail]

Strix point is good too

But lpddr if I'm not mistaken

No wait

16gb unified?

I forgot

Either way the intel example is very handy

[lone mango]

Ohhhh i know what you are talking about

Yeah i think it is unified

If its on the package like that it must be

[mortal grail]

On die is a big jump

It's the reason why gpus have vram so close

The closer they are to the compute the better

Less latency between data caching

And less latency in that regard is ALWAYS better

So yeah, Zen 6 will be a big moment for ryzen

I would've gone zen 6 myself had the 9800X3D not been a free upgrade

I probably still will just later

[lone mango]

If they pull off the silicon bridge that will be insane

[mortal grail]

Zen 5 laid a lot of groundwork honestly

Maybe not in this regard but in terms of making zen 6 look good lol

It sucks as a consumer purchase but in terms of architecture it was huge

[lone mango]

There were mlid slides of a threadripper or enterprise chip that was in the works, or maybe already exists to some extent with silicon bridges connecting the chiplets

[mortal grail]

Mmmm, mlid

Take with a grain of salt

He gets a lot of things wrong as well

If you wanna see what the future looks like for ryzen tho, look at epyc

[lone mango]

The reason I buy it is because high yield and I think asianometry also talked about what amd is cooking

[mortal grail]

X3D is effectively downbin enterprise ccds

[lone mango]

But high yield brought this stuff up a year ago idk how he knew all of that

Bro cooked that time

[mortal grail]

Hmm I'm not sure then

I mean timeline wise...

Epyc being out soon makes sense for next gen

End of this year we should see zen 6 as well

[surreal comet]

Hellhound 7900xtx popped up
2 hours away tho

[wise wigeon]

sadge

[surreal comet]

No box either

Sad

[mortal grail]

Hellhound is nice

Especially if you find the white ones

Those are uncommon

They have limited edition variants

[wise wigeon]

Ugh I havent touched or tested the build after putting it in the new case

I also just wanna be done with it, I missed 7900xtx drop again

[mortal grail]

You got this man, I'm about to work on my own stuff

Put off a hdmi issue for a day or two lmao

[wise wigeon]

like it worked out of the box its just the tiny baby scuff around the standoff hole

[mortal grail]

Worst that can happen is in all likelihood 1 part with a remedying issue

[mortal grail]

Not bad

[surreal comet]

This is the only picture so kinda suspicious

[mortal grail]

850 a little high imo but probably just the market

[elfin mural]

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Core-Ultra-9-275HX-becomes-fastest-laptop-processor-on-PassMark.958865.0.html

[wise wigeon]

well the main issue is fresh install and setting everything up again

and figureing out what important stuff i gotta move over

[mortal grail]

You can google the image to see if it's been used before

[elfin mural]

speedy mobile cpu

[wise wigeon]

plus im trying out the book thing someone suggested to flatten the sid panel

[mortal grail]

That was me

Lol

[wise wigeon]

lol

yeah 1 day didnt work but i think i didnt set up books in the right spot

[mortal grail]

If the books don't work well enough arms will do the trick

💀

[wise wigeon]

i can only fit so many books on the thing

so i set it up in a fairly spread out fashion but really its a single area that isnt flat

so im consentrating the weight on that half making sure there isnt any wobble

also i have way less old text books than i remember

just taking a slight break from stufy rn

study*

also need to get myself a board to put the new pc on

I dont really want it on the ground

just a lil elevation to decrease the dust a bit

[surreal comet]

Dust will always find it's way in

[little zinc]

Hey has anyone had problems with their shipment?

Kinda stressing over my $900 package

[fair onyx]

From where? A lot of places are struggling right now

[little zinc]

I'm on a military base in korea

[fair onyx]

My shipment from LTT was delayed considerably, and Amazon is also really backed up right now. Northern storms seem to be holding things up considerably

[little zinc]

When was yours

My shipments last known location was Illinois

16 days ago

[fair onyx]

Mine was supposed to ship on Jan 31st, and now it's not scheduled until tomorrow

[little zinc]

Hmm

It's really sketchy too cause on newegg app and website it says delivered

But it's clearly not lol and usps tracking doesn't reflect the same

Nor does the system the military post office here uses

I wouldn't mind the delay but newegg saying it's delivered is really making me think they are doing smth shady so it'll make getting a refund or replacement impossible if I miss the window

[surreal comet]

I think shipping everywhere Is pretty slow rn

[little zinc]

[surreal comet]

Saddening ik

[sinful blade]

Ask @rigid sinew to look into it
Or the Newegg support

On a side note
I finally got protonvpn to work

[little zinc]

Tried dm'ing newegg but no response in 10 hours

I'll try the other person rn

Thanks

[sinful blade]

@little zinc @digital thunder

Dm them

[little zinc]

[random osprey]

it is the weekend so weggservice is probably not gonna respond till tomorrow

[little zinc]

Yeaaa

I hate being 14 hours in the future (korea standard time)

[random osprey]

ah ye, its 11:40pm here in california, so like another 9-10 hours till business hours and they start replying

[little zinc]

Mhmm mhmm thank you

[surreal comet]

It's nap time here in America

I found a 7900xtx at 1000 new on Amazon, bad price?

Merc 310 model

[little zinc]

What's the difference between merc310 and other ones? Got mine on newegg for like 850 but uhm it's either lost or still in transit 🫠

[surreal comet]

I'm unsure

It's an official Amazon listing albeit it's a second hand party with like 4.7 stars

[surreal comet]

Newegg shipping has always been slow for me tbh

But I'm kinda remote

And nvm it's already sold out

[little zinc]

🫠dang

[surreal comet]

I blame the bots

[little zinc]

I blame China

[surreal comet]

True ...

I just want muh AMD GPU like everyone else

[little zinc]

Me too

[mortal grail]

If sold by amazon that's an ouch, likely tariffs starting to affect even the older cards

[hoary zodiac]

I love how the storage industry all came together and disabled shucking microdrives for cameras

[surreal comet]

It's already gone tbh

[hoary zodiac]

photographers/videographers gets screwed over so much with storage prices

[surreal comet]

There is a 7900xt for 600 locally, used, unsure how big of a gap between it and an 7900xtx is

It just seems like an xt is a slightly slower xtx

And 4 less gb of vram

So many decisions

[mortal grail]

600 is a decent price

16% less

In like every way

Vram, performance, power

And yet cheaper by a mile

[surreal comet]

Not an insane upgrade from a lowly 4070 but much more vram is nice

As well as just better Linux support

[mortal grail]

Eh

It's like 40% over 4070

[surreal comet]

Nvidia drivers have been not fun on Linux

Larger jump than I thought

It's a gigabyte card that

Looks like the reference card

Which I think looks nice

[mortal grail]

I'm way off

50%+

[surreal comet]

That much uplift?

I'll give the seller a holler

[mortal grail]

Specifically

Some 58% 7900XT
80% XTX

[surreal comet]

Nice looking card imo

[mortal grail]

Over 4070

And that number gets much bigger at 4K

But smaller with RT

[surreal comet]

I'll probably just put the 4070 in storage tbh

Maybe save it for some nice compact build in the future

[mortal grail]

Ref card

Those are good for itx

They're noisy but otherwise identical to every other card

[surreal comet]

This is why we undervolt and use more airflow

Granted I know that's not gonna fix it

It'll help tho

[surreal comet]

I don't rt anywho

I do play cyberpunk often RT just isn't worth enabling

[mortal grail]

I'm laggy af rn so guess I'll just log off

But anyway that 7900 XT is not bad, just a bit of a noisy boi

Ohp and there's the messages

Haha

Anyway good luck

[surreal comet]

Take care Chief

Thanks

[hoary zodiac]

I've just had a very stupid idea

I should convert my poco into a pocket pc

[pseudo raven]

theres a special android distro out there

that you could probably use to do so

well i mean its a linux distro

termuxfce

or something

i have it on my tablet it works pretty well
